Car Parks

Finding a safe, secure, ideally located and inexpensive car park may be a challenge for most city dwellers. It's advisable to know of a few great parking lots in the areas you tend to visit so that you are aware of the choices when you plan your route.

Big car parks are usually located next to airports, shopping malls, sporting arenas, educational institutes, or any large public place. These large, often multi-storied or sprawling car parks often offer full day parking facilities and may include a nominal parking fee. Airport parking offers "park and fly" services whereby you can leave your car at the car park and catch a shuttle to your terminal.

Smaller car parks can usually be found next to residential complexes and office buildings and often designated for use by users of those facilities, although there are exceptions.

When looking for secure parking, here are some questions to consider:

What days and times is the car park open? Many parking areas are open on Sundays and holidays while others operate just during the week. Still others have scheduled opening and closing times while some are open 24 hours.

How close is the car park to your destination? Use the mapped destinations on Start Local to find out the exact location of your chosen car park. Also consider what modes of transport are available from the car park to your destination? Is it walking distance or would you require further transport? If it requires public transport, can you find taxis or buses nearby? And if so, do they operate on a scheduled basis, like every half hour? It's important to know this so you may schedule your parking time with catching your next mode of transport to be able to arrive at your destination on time.

Is the parking lot located indoor/underground or outside? Indoor parking lots prevent the car from getting hot in the summer and from rain but may seem less safe, especially at night. Outdoor car parks are affected by weather conditions but can sometimes feel safer when in full view of the street.

What is the fee structure of the car park? Is the first hour (or three) free or discounted? Are the charges incremental (increasing with each hour) or is there a flat rate (fixed fee for any number of hours)? Is parking free on Sundays or national holidays?

The Myer Centre Car Park owned and operated by Nyer is great. They have staff in the car park every ...time I have been there, which to me, lets me feel a little more secure when my car is there while I am not.Read More

Parked in Wilson Parking, Duncan St, Fortitude Valley on Sat night. Had ticket validated at venue we... attended and went to pay but some of the cash we put in the machine was taken but not accepted in the total amount. We talked to the attendant (via ticket machine) who authorized our full payment and told us to vacate but as ticket wasn't given out by the machine. We had to then talk to another attendant (via machine) who was so rude and wouldn't listen to our complaint, kept on saying the venue wasn't on his list of validated sites (but this wasn't our complaint as we'd already had the ticket validated). By this time there were several others waiting for the machine and as elderly patrons we felt obliged to then pay extra money just to get out of the place. Will never park there again!Read More
